Slow Baked Banana Bread Recipes

CROCK POT BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Put your butter and sugar in a large bowl and beat until well combined and fluffy
• Add in your eggs and beat until they are mix in well
• Grab a different bowl and mix together your flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda
• Alternate back and forth between adding a little of your flour mixture and a little of your banana to your sugar mixture while stirring until all is combined well
• Sprinkle your chopped walnuts on top and stir into your batter
• Pour your batter into a greased standard loaf pan that will fit in your 6-quart slow cooker (I used my Crock Pot 6-quart Cook and Carry). The pan will likely sit on the edges of the slow cooker and not go completely down and that is completely okay.
• Put your bread pan in your slow cooker. If it will fit all the way down, place it on a rack so it does not sit directly on the bottom. If you do not have a rack (and your pan fits all the way down), you can pour about 1/2 cup of water in the crock around the outside of the pan.
• Place several paper towels over the top on your pan to catch excess water from the lid. Be careful not to get the paper towel into your batter.
• Cover and cook on high setting for 2-3 hours, until it can pass the toothpick test

SLOW-BAKED BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Mash bananas well in a large bowl. Add the remaining ingredients in order and mix well. Pour batter into 2 greased, 9×5-inch loaf pans. Bake for 1 3/4 to 2 hours at 250 degrees-yes, 250 degrees!-or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean and the top is golden. Cool for 10-15 minutes, then remove from pans and cool completely on a baking rack.

SLOW-COOKER BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Place a piece of parchment paper into a 5-quart slow cooker, letting ends extend up sides. Grease paper with cooking spray. Combine the first 4 ingredients in a large bowl. Pour batter into prepared slow cooker. If desired, sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the top of batter. Cover slow cooker with a double layer of white paper towels; place lid securely over towels. , Cook, covered, on high until bread is lightly browned, 2-1/2 to 3 hours. To avoid scorching, rotate slow cooker insert a half turn midway through cooking, lifting carefully with oven mitts. Remove bread from slow cooker using parchment to lift; cool slightly before slicing.

THE BEST BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter one 9-by-5-inch loaf pan.
• Whisk together the flour, pecans, granulated sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt and nutmeg in a large bowl. Whisk together the eggs, melted butter, buttermilk, brown sugar and vanilla in a medium bowl; stir in the mashed bananas. Fold the banana mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (it's OK if there are some lumps).
• Pour the batter into the buttered pan and lightly tap the pan on the counter to evenly distribute the batter. Bake until browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out completely clean, about 1 hour. Let the bread cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a rack to cool completely.

MY FAVORITE BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Adjust the oven rack to the lower third position and preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or coat with nonstick spray. Set aside.
• Whisk the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together in a large bowl.
• Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the butter and brown sugar together on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. On medium speed, add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the yogurt, mashed bananas, and vanilla extract on medium speed until combined. With the mixer running on low speed, slowly beat the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until no flour pockets remain. Do not overmix. Fold in the nuts, if using.
• Spoon the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 60-65 minutes. Loosely cover the bread with aluminum foil after 30 minutes to help prevent the top and sides from getting too brown. A toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf will come out clean when the bread is done. Remove from the oven and allow the bread to cool completely in the pan set on a wire rack.
• Cover and store banana bread at room temperature for 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Banana bread tastes best on day 2 after the flavors have settled together. See post above for freezing instructions.

SIMPLE BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease one 8x4 inch loaf pan and set aside.
• In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
• In another bowl, mash the bananas and stir in the eggs and sugar. Stir in the flour mixture and mix until just combined, then fold in the chopped nuts (optional). Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 55 to 65 minutes or until bread tests done. Remove from oven and cool on a rack for 10 minute, then remove from pan and cool completely. Slice and serve.

SLOW-COOKER BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Spray 4- to 4 1/2-quart round slow cooker with cooking spray. Line bottom with cooking parchment paper, and spray again.
• In large bowl, stir bananas, sugar, melted butter, vanilla and eggs until well blended. Stir in Bisquick™ mix until well blended.
• Pour into slow cooker. Place folded, clean dish towel under cover of cooker. This will prevent condensation from dripping down onto bread. Cook on High heat setting 1 hour. Carefully remove slow cooker's ceramic insert, leaving cover on, and rotate insert 180 degrees. Continue to cook on High heat setting 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours or until toothpick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs. Transfer ceramic insert from cooker to cooling rack; uncover and let stand 15 minutes. Remove bread from ceramic insert to cooling rack. Peel off parchment paper. Cool completely, about 1 hour.

BRILLIANT BANANA LOAF

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
• Butter a 2lb loaf tin and line the base and sides with baking parchment.
• Cream 140g softened butter and 140g caster sugar until light and fluffy, then slowly add 2 beaten large eggs with a little of the 140g flour.
• Fold in the remaining flour, 1 tsp baking powder and 2 mashed bananas.
• Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and bake for about 50 mins, or until cooked through. Check the loaf at 5-min intervals by testing it with a skewer (it should be able to be inserted and removed cleanly), as the time may vary depending on the shape of your loaf tin.
• Cool in the tin for 10 mins, then remove to a wire rack.
• Mix 50g icing sugar with 2-3 tsp water to make a runny icing.
• Drizzle the icing across the top of the cake and decorate with a handful of banana chips.
